New rims on

kstng50 · Jun 12, 2006

I got my new rims put on today. They are 18x9 saleen replicas. Now I want to lower it but I'm not sure what springs to get. I am thinking the C springs or maybe some steeda springs. But the front looks pretty high and im not sure if that will be low enough. I would like to have the back a little higher then the front. Im not looking to spend a lot of money on this since I just spent enough on the wheels. Does anyone know what I should get for the best bang for the buck?

Make sure you get struts as well with springs, don't just got springs.

Sweet car I love the wheels!
Go for Bilstein struts/shocks and H&R sports or supersports you won't
be sorry.

kstng50 sweet ride..i have the h&r SS + bilsteins..its nice, but theirs better..i drove a 03 gt vert with hr supersport and tokico illumina..much nicer ride, and a 99 gt hardtop with eibach prokit+ koni yellow..nicer ride...bilstein's handle nice but are rougher on the ride then the others it seems..BTW please get the sidescoops, your car is screaming for them

derek02gt ya I need to get the side scoops but I need to get the car lowered first. This 4x4 look is killing me. About how much am I looking to get decent struts and springs. I plan on doing the install myself if its not to hard. I have a lift so I think that will make it easier.

Wait kstng50...what color is your car?? Is that Atlantic Blue??

XxMustang281xX · Jun 13, 2006

Ok, that car makes me want to get Saleens. Which would you guys prefer for my car? FR-500's or those Saleens? Either way chrome..

derek02gt · Jun 13, 2006

kstang50 you can get the h&r's for 229 shipped from alot of places online I think..I got my bilsteins for $469 free shipping..tokico illumina's are cheaper then that but only by a couple dollars..I rode on my h&r without Shocks/Struts for about 8months before they started feeling like crap..so you "DONT" have to do them right away but if you can afford it, do it..but yea side scoops will complete the car..and maybe some 01-04 headlamps

kstng50 · Jun 13, 2006

mustangray I think you should go with the saleen wheels

I think I will just get the springs now then when I get my real job I can afford to get the rest.

XxMustang281xX · Jun 13, 2006

yea thats seriously making me think about it. Is your car Atlantic Blue?

kstng50 · Jun 13, 2006

streetstang03 · Jun 13, 2006
